Forest Glen Real Estate Market

Forest Glen Real Estate

Like most of the surrounding northwest Chicago neighborhoods, Forest Glen real estate is dominated by brick two- and three-story homes, English Tudors, Georgian-style houses, and even some row homes. One unique aspect about many Forest Glen homes is that the majority of the neighborhood side streets run directly into the forest preserves, giving residents added seclusion not typically seen in Chicago. As in almost any neighborhood, housing styles certainly vary in Forest Glen, and so does the price range for homes in this market. The average sales price for a single-family home in Forest Glen is just over $407,000. Large four- and five-bedroom homes can have a list price all the way up to $800,000.

Forest Glen Community Amenities

The only neighborhood public house within Forest Glen boundaries is Rabbit's, located at 4945 W Foster Avenue. Dining options in Forest Glen include the Forest Glen Restaurant at 5200 N Elston, Hunan Spring, and Mr. V's Pizza, but residents use these neighborhood hotspots for takeout in the evenings and on the weekends. The Forest Preserve of Cook County is right in Forest Glen's backyard, making this location unbeatable for walking, jogging, or biking in Chicago. The Forest Glen Playlot Park is also a short walk down the street, located at 5069 W Berwyn Avenue.

Forest Glen Neighborhood Highlights

The Forest Glen Metra Stop is right off Forest Glen Avenue, providing transportation to Glenview, Deerfield, Gray's Lake, Morton Grove, and the Chicago Union Station stop. The Edens Expressway is just a few blocks east of the Foster and Elston intersection, should driving to downtown Chicago or the North Shore suburbs be a necessity.
